Biography
Stallone Jones is an electronic music producer and songwriter from Cardiff, South Wales, UK, currently signed to 30th Floor Records. Originally a guitarist and singer in several Cardiff based rock and metal bands, in 2012 after years of touring and recording, he made the transition into electronic music and began experimenting primarily in the synthwave and dreamwave sub genres, contributing tracks to various compilation albums released on a variety of labels. The artist's music draws inspiration predominantly from 80s and 90s music, film, TV and pop culture, and from his various travels around the world, specifically exotic and tropical destinations.
In 2015 he released his debut album 'Get Some' on 30th Floor Records. The album featured a unique blend of 80s inspired synth music and 90s dance music combined with tropical grooves and rhythms, and hip-hop style beats. The track 'VHS Voyeur' became popular among 80s revival radio shows and was subsequently featured on the 'Retro Wave 2' compilation album, along with a host of prominent synthwave and dreamwave artists.
